Hi everyone.

I was engaged by friend about Forex exchange at forex.com.

There are couple things that come into my mind.

How to detect it is a scam.
The account created on forex.com under my name and i have to authorize a trader to trade for me. (mean worry free).
There is sum of amount i need to pay to trader at fix amount yearly.

1. Forex.com is reliable source ?
2. What can authorized trader do ? Possible purposely causing money losing to gain on his end ?
3. I am thinking getting forexautopilot to test out demo account. Anyone using this software and where to get it(Last time was sold in LYN but being ban after that).

1)For mini account, 1 lot=usd10,000 position size=usd1 per pip,
since you are trading 0.01 lot=usd100 position size=usd0.01 per pip
(http://www.forex4noobs.com/forex-tools/calculators/pip-value-calculator.php)

In order to get usd0.10 per pip, you should trade 0.1lot instead of 0.01.

2)Depends on your broker, some broker don't support micro account. Please check with your broker whether they support micro account.

3)Micro account allows you to trade as low as usd0.01 per pip.
Others please correct me if I am wrong, thanks.

I am not sure bro, never tried Oanda and Dukascopy. It is free if you use credit card, but I personally prefer Telegraphic Transfer via bank. Interbank charges is about USD20 ++, which is reasonable, small money compared to the profit.

IBFX need certified document.... that annoying.. need to get those document certified at police station

Agreed, it become more exciting during news hours watching from Bloomberg... tongue.gif
I don't understand why you said fxcm charge 0.10 pre trade as I know their charge come frm spread... unless you're talking about their mobile platform for fxcm micro then yes they will charge 0.10 per trade for micro acc.
yes, I am talking about mobile platform..

I checking with IBFX AUS account and they allow swap free account upon application BUT there is some charges on swap free account. can someone confirm this ?

I wonder did anyone try this
buy and sell at the same time . Set S/L +30 pips and T/P +90 pips on both
Which ever direction it goes u will make 60pips

of make 60pips in every transaction and of course T/P and be adjusted if the direction is good. ....

i make 3 TP (3x60= 120 pips) from this strategy loss 1(both direction lost 2x30 pips = 60 pips)

Still 60pips gain.

Please shoot me..i am noob

Well I am glad that I switched my second entire acc from USD to AUD @ 0.83 rate tongue.gif Not to mention in Oanda, it pays me ~4% interest(annual rate) on daily basis.

With Austrialia Economy growing faster than US/Europe + the stocks and gold keep hitting new high. It would seems obvious that AUD is likely breaking Parity vs USD soon.

Hi,
I have the same way of thinking creating account in AUS rather than USD but most of the time I am playing with EURUSD pair.

Does it affect the conversion each time placing trace on EURUSD...

I am very new to forex. ....
